    Heating water is one of the highest uses of energy in the home. Using way less water uses way less energy. I dunno if you know this but theres kinda an issue with all the fuel burning we do.

      This is a valid point, that I am aware of, but it doesn’t help to save energy with dishwashing when you then drive a gas guzzler or waste energy on a high end graphics card or air conditioning ^^ What matters is the overall energy consumption footprint - I prefer to clean my dishes by hand, and save energy elsewhere :p
